Mr President, Armed with the important tenet of enjoining the right and
forbidding the wrong (amr bil-maruf and nahy anil-munkar) Imam Hussain
R.A along with his small army comprising his close family members,
including women and children, and friends, proceeded to face one of the
most unique battles ever recorded in the annals of human history. His
unwavering courage and that of his companions have left such indelible
marks that despite the efforts of their enemies, these are getting more and
more etched in the hearts and souls of people.
Mr President, For as long as he could, Imam Hussain R.A used his full
strength to avert conflict and bloodshed, raising the flag of humanity and
preaching forbearance but when things got out of control, when sense got
overcome with madness, when thirst for blood got the better of the brute
forces, when words fell on deaf ears, when efforts to direct the misled
towards a dignified life failed, then he was left with no option but to take up
arms. He sacrificed himself and his family members-from the eldest to the
youngest (six months old Ali Asghar R.A)-but refused to surrender to
injustice and cruelty.
Mr President, The legacy of Imam Hussain Ibn e Ali (R.A) is one that
embodies great bravery, determination and grace in the face of tyranny
may the courage and character of Hazrat Imam Hussain be a beacon for all
during challenges.
